Farm Happenings at Strawberry Hill Farm
First Plantings Outdoors
Is it winter, or is it spring? The weather’s ups and downs have kept us guessing, and the frequent rains and soggy ground have kept us from planting much outdoors. At least the garlic is growing well, as it was planted last fall.
This past week Ron managed to till our early garden and plant s1 read more »
Happy Easter!
At the farm, daffodils and hyacinths are blooming, kale and onion seedlings are growing indoors, and the weather is slowly warming up. Easter will be here before we know it.
This week we have plenty of eggs available on the farm stand. With such fresh eggs, peeling them when boiled can be a challen1 read more »
Spring in Bloom
Spring is here! The crocuses are in vivid bloom at the farm, and the earliest daffodils are opening. We have begun planting seeds in our “greenhouse” (the south windows of our packing shed), and soon will plant more. Seedlings like onions, kale, and Brussels sprouts will be the first to1 read more »
Temperatures Up and Down!
Spring is definitely on the way! The weather is unsettled, however, with temperatures fluctuating from 70 degrees to the 40s during the day. At the farm, we’re happy to see the earliest spring flowers blooming—snowdrops (pictured) and snow crocuses.

An Old-Fashioned Winter
We’re experiencing an old-fashioned winter at the farm, including frigid temperatures, snowdrifts, sledding, and ice skating. Now another storm is coming. Will it be mostly rain, freezing rain, or snow? What will road conditions be like on Thursday? If the roads are too bad for Ron to deliver1 read more »
Brrr, It's Cold!
It is definitely cold weather these days. This afternoon Ron, Chris, Erin, and the little boys were skating this afternoon while the ice is good. We are enjoying the slower pace of winter.
Sorry for the late launching of the farm stand today. Something was not working right with our Internet conne1 read more »
Merry Christmas from the Farm!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We’re looking forward to having our whole family here at the farm next week for a late Christmas celebration. We’re sure you have happy holiday plans too.

Christmas Baking!
Mary’s busy baking these days, putting Christmas goodies in the freezer for when our family will gather. Baking takes lots of eggs, so it’s time to stock up! We have plenty of eggs available for your holiday baking.
We also have some of Mary’s shortbread this week, and she will ba1 read more »
